Abstract
Cloud enterprise resource planning systems (cerp) are hosted on-demand services that offer significant opportunities for micro, small, and medium enterprises (msmes). The “pay-per-use” model, scalability, and flexibility of the cloud have removed many of the barriers associated with traditional erp systems, potentially contributing to the economic growth of msmes. However, msmes in developing countries, particularly in africa and the middle east, have been slow to adopt cerp although they are facing difficulties to operate efficiently. Based on a preliminary study and extensive literature review, a conceptual model was developed drawing on the diffusion of innovation (doi), technology, organization, environment (toe), and fit viability model (fvm) to investigate the factors influencing cerp adoption among msmes in egypt. This model was empirically validated through a survey of 236 respondents from egyptian msmes. The findings revealed new insights about cerp adoption. The results showed that fit and viability positively influence cerp adoption. Compatibility, observability, technological readiness, top management support, and competitive pressure were found to be major determinants of cerp adoption through the mediating effects of fit and viability
